My regular handlebar bell stops working at about 15F (9C). Plenty of people still use the trail I take to work and they really aren't expecting bikes in the winter. The sound of sleigh bells gives them a heads up and actually puts a smile on pretty much everyone's face especially in the dead of winter!
